sweetleftpeg 0 Posted August 15, 2006 Author Share Posted August 15, 2006 The beer is alright, and I agree with Gemmill, it can be stronger. You don't just get Fed stuff in either, all the big beers are in nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catmag 336 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 My dad used to take me to the North Biddick WMC when I was about 16. I don't remember there being a 'no women' rule in the bar as that's where we always sat, although looking back I don't recall there being any other lasses in there . I do remember that there was a big sign up saying women weren't allowed to play snooker though which I found pretty unfair. There were definitely no airs and graces and the place was always thick with smoke but the beer was cheap and it's where I learned to play pool. They had cracking Christmas parties for the kids an'all. Paul McCartney and Heather Mills popped in for a pint a couple of years ago too iirc..

One is unfair, the other is a fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 8944 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 the Sluice WMC still has a sign on it's wall "Best North East Club 2000" or something like that. decent pool tables, cheap (but shit) lager and full of the people I want to avoid tbh. scummers that I went to school with, old perverts who you see leering at the one barmaid as if she's Eva Longhera, more like Ava Gardner tbh. as in, if you laid em side by side, it'd be hard to tell them apart. I'm saying she's fucking hideous. like worryingly rank. don't like the place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 34157 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Harsh Times does look good. I like Christian Bale. Apart from Batman. That wasn't very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13804 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Ive been to a few. Most of them aer allright, some are shit. There good places to have band practice becaus ethey have massive halls that they just ley you use and you can practice on the stage the sound projects better and is therefore easier to mix. You do get some knobheads who make people feel unwelcome. The worst one ive ever been in is in York - at un. Fucking psycho's. We played bingo for a laugh - we went into see my mate who was working there - were not sad cunts. We started pissing ourselves luaghing at the stupidity of it and this bloke got up and full on went mental. and then you allways get your strange sights.. some bloke came in for his birthday with a massive spread on and more fucking tin foil surrounding it then you can imagine - he was a mute or somethng and like there was two people there..

Ted Maul 0 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 My lasses Dad is in a band and plays mostly in WMCs. I went to see him play at the Top Club (Cath will probably know where it is) and i've never seen so many rough fuckers in my life. I'd hazard a guess that the Osmond family had more teeth than all of the people in there added together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proper classy: 2 pool cue's (one with a nib). A bronze bin with black flowers painted on under almost every table so that when the mountain of ash in your ashtray is too high you can dispose of it without waiting for a potlad. A Bronze sign outside with ALL the letters remaining in tact. A pickled egg jar within it's sell by date. Posh as anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
